Approximate Age and Location:  40's.  Central Indiana Are you a born and raised IU fan?   Since I first came home from the hospital.  First thing I ever watched on TV was IU v Ohio State basketball When you first knew you were an IU fan?   I don't remember NOT being an IU fan.  But I knew it when I cried at the bus stop the day after the 1976 championship game and I knew I would never watch those guys play at Indiana again. What sports did you play in High School and College?   Baseball and football for 4 years in HS, basketball for 2 years in HS, football in college Besides IU, favorite sports teams?   Indianapolis Colts, Cincinnati Reds, Indiana Pacers Did you attend IU? Yes  What is your favorite IU Basketball Memory? Being in BTown for the heartbreak of the 1975 NCAA tourney and seeing the team rebound in 1976 with the last undefeated championship team in history. I kept this one (which was someone else's) because it fits for me, also. Who is your favorite basketball player of all time?   Jordan.  Best of all time and an absolute killer.   What is your favorite IU Football memory?   IU 52  Purdue 7   1988.  In Lafayette. Who is your favorite IU Football player? Anthony Thompson and it's not close. Best sporting event ever attended? 2007 AFC Championship Game.  Colts 38  Patriots 34.   What brings you to this board?  You guys have, what a 6 to 8 week training program here?  A real tough one?   Gotta' have SOMEwhere to talk IU sports, right?.  New start with fewer agendas and no (seemingly) mods with God complexes. Meaning of username?   The old one wore out a long time ago, and it was never the real "me" anyway.

I think that sentence says an awful lot about how the program has progressed the last few years.  

I honestly think that is how voting should go on Election Day. You fill that out and whoever you get is your vote. Not a popularity contest, but an actual measure of were you align with the respective candidates.

Everyone that grows up in Indiana is better.  I thought that was common knowledge.  :)

No but, I didn't want someone to have to pay to mail one, when IU has all that money!  :)

I think this is the year we beat Michigan.  That is going to be my only wild prediction for the year.  I think 6 games, but other than Michigan, I won't pick the other 5.  Well we will beat Purdue; so I won't pick the other 4.  :)

Heard true freshman Jacob Robinson has been impressive. Wilson mentioned that someone like him would have started from day one a few years ago. But with more depth this season, he will probably red shirt.

I am impressed with that poll  it ranked my top three in the order I would have ranked them:
 
Sanders 81%
Kasich 72%
Paul 67%
 
I thought that it was neat that it showed in what areas I agree with the candidates.  For example on Sanders: I agree with Environmental, Healthcare, Social, and Immigration issues.

DVRed the debates and watched them. Next presidential election will be my first time being able to vote (since I'm only 17). Just trying to be a well informed voter. As of right now though my favorite is Ben Carson, he's very well spoken and I agree with his thoughts on the military and his fix to the tax system

Scores with the games. Sorry I haven't posted in a while or a long time really but it is almost IU football season and this is what I live for.... Weird Ik but those who have seen my posts know I'm more of a football fan than basketball #play13 and #coachhep oh and i add a front page heading

Southern Illinois- W (42-14) "sudfeld shines"

FIU- W (49-17) "Panthers tamed by stifling defense"

WKU- W (52-24) "Hilltoppers sent running for their hills"

WF- W (35-14) "knorr proves his worth"

OSU- L (45-38) "another almost scare at memorial stadium for he bucks"

PSU- W (42-21) "IU clicks after heartbreaker"

Rutgers- W (38-17) "Howard runs wild like tevin"

MSU- W (24-17) "defense finally overcomes"

Iowa- W (42-21) "8-1? Hoosiers clicking and turning heads"

Michigan- W (52-28) "maize and blue lose to hoosiers under that new guy"

Maryland- L (42-21) "look who's back the old Hoosiers crumble under pressure"

Purdue - W (56-21) "Turdue really stinks it up and IU fires back"

10-2.... Call me crazy i do not care. Sudfeld throws for over 3,000 and Howard rushes for 1,500 plus yards oh and that awful defense is top 30 in the nation. And we flip some 4 and one 5 star recruit.

Btw I'm at purdue for graduation.....pray for me lol already yelled go Hoosiers

Why beat you up?  Everyone is entitled to their opinion, no matter how clueless it may be.  :)

Hopefully during the season we will have some longer ones, but it will be because we are winning, not discussing if this is the last year for the coach! :)  Of course it is IU, so every thread we start concerning the two major sports turns into a "time to make a change at the top" thread.
